Benchtop Shields

For Gamma Radiation

Vertical Leaded Acrylic Shield

Clear Pb vertical benchtop shield

These benchtop acrylic shields are ideal for laboratory use when low energy gamma radiation is present. They are made of  "clear Pb" which consists of an acrylic copolymer resin into which lead is chemically introduced as an organic salt compound. "Clear Pb" contains 30% lead by weight. Its Physical properties are similar to those of conventional acrylic resins. Vertical shields include 0.5 mm and 1.5 mm lead equivlance. A larger and smaller size is avaiable in each thickness.
